On Friday I Will Invent the Comic Strip Strap-On

Or at least, I will read some poems and hand out some vulgar drawings.

They are calling it visual poetics!

Jackson Heights Poetry Festival in Jackson Heights!

Hello friends. I'm in a hotel room in Syracuse. It is misty outside and this has pushed all the humans in. I don't know where they went. They are not in my hotel room. It feels very weird that I am alone in a hotel room. Illicit in the way suppositories are illicit.



I wanted to invite you to the Jackson Heights Poetry Festival on Saturday.

My press will be there. We'll have fresh copies of Kate Schapira's new chapbook, The Saint's Notebook. I will also take the stage around 10:30am and sing the praises of the Golgi Apparatus.

Here are the details:

I am Reading and Selling my Business in Richmond this Sunday

Mathias and Julia and I are headed down to Richmond this weekend to read poems and sell books and eat at Mamma 'Zu (I hope) and possibly catch UFC 97: Redemption tomorrow night at Buffalo Wild Wings. They don't know about the latter.

I haven't seen Anderson Silva fight in a while and even if I miss it, Matt's recording it for me, so win win win win, I love winning.

Oh--the reading is at the Visual Arts Center and we're all reading early, around 1.
